The Pixel 8 is a phone that makes you think positively about the future of smartphones, thanks to its unique blend of design, AI capabilities and affordability. It's even cheaper than usual on Amazon subsidiary Woot for the next three days, provided it doesn't sell out before then.
THE Pixel 8 and its big brother launched an AI revolution in the industry, spurring competitors into action. However, you don't make the list of best phones of 2024 just because of new technologies.
The phone perfected what was already great about its predecessor. Its 6.2-inch 120Hz OLED display makes it easier to hold than other high-end phones, and its 2,000 nits peak brightness makes it incredibly bright and clear.
The Tensor G3 chip ensures there's no shortage of power, and the 8GB of RAM makes multitasking easy. The in-house chip also powers the generative AI and machine learning features that set the phone apart.
The phone can accurately transcribe voices and summarize long web pages for a quick overview. Google Assistant also takes less time to process your orders.
THE
Pixel 8 has the same 50 MP main camera as the more expensive Pixel 8
Pro, which is joined by a 12 MP ultra-wide shooter. That's one heck of a camera system and in some situations it outperforms that of the
iPhone 15 Pro. And of course, you get Pixel specials like double exposure controls and astrophotography, plus new features like Magic Editor.
The phone will be supported for seven years, so it will last longer than other handsets.
The 128 GB Pixel 8 retails for $699.99, but right now you can get it for just $539.99 on Woot. That's a $160 reduction and brings the price of the phone to a new low. You won't find another smartphone like this in this price range.
